Mike,
If you want I can take a short piece of aluminum tubing the OD of the fuel pump, weld a disc on the top with a -6 or -8 bulkhead fitting, then you clamp the thing inside the stock big rubber bootie thing on the tank. I'd say keep the stock lift pump and run the pickup right into that surge tank. I can send it up to you when I get the adapters for the rear brakes done.



oh yeah according to groo this thing sitting in my barn now has your name on itsmiling smiley

Bahhh, just lay it up +60, 0, -60 then it's quasi-isotropic and you don't need to use a laminate analysis program. That's about the only thing I remember from my composites design class

I can't understand anything Kenny sezs. And I'll be cheesing with Obama's Mama in the oval office before that intake is running in anger on Mike's SAAB ;-)

The intake will be installed on a Saab engine, shortly after the Tedneck get's giggy with Obama's Momma.

The kevlar is too rich-boy for me...but I thought I had a way to get it in such a way that I could impress the chicks on a budget. Att the end of the day, it doesn't appear to be the case.

I guess I'll just have to continue to be Brett's wingman....

We don't use kevlar where I work, but we have this spectra fabric that looks pretty bling. A roll might get lost.

I think Spectra is an alternative to Kevlar...google seems to think so anyway.
